In April 2015, John Romero released a large amount of Doom development assets on the Doomworld Forums, much of it previously unseen. His first release was the Objective-C source code to DoomEd, the original editor used by id Software's level designers to create the levels for Doom, as well as other Doom engine games. He followed this 30 minutes later by releasing the sources to the Doom, Ultimate Doom, and Doom II maps. A third release contained a large number of Doom's textures and graphics from Doom's development, many of which had been cut from the final game.

The Unholy Trinity

The Unholy Trinity, or Trinity College, is a single-level PWAD designed by Steve McCrea, Simon Wall, and Elias Papavassilopoulos. As part of their 10 Years of Doom feature, Doomworld named it one of the ten best WADs of 1994.

This map uses a large number of custom textures to create striking "photorealistic" buildings and courtyards, modeled on the real Trinity College in Cambridge, England. It also features an original animation sequence and a replacement music track, which is a partial rendition of "Toccata and Fugue in D Minor" by Johann Sebastian Bach.

Trinity was originally released on August 22, 1994 (as "trinity.wad"). A second version ("trinity2.wad") was issued September 4, 1994 to fix a bug involving texture patches.
